The Montpelier Waterman has big
job on hand. Not long ago it gently
chided the Woodstock Standard for its
unwise suggestion that Robert T. Lin
coin would be a good candidate for
president. Since then nearly every
republican paper in the state has spok-
en- good word for this worthy son of
his father. And now the last number
of the Bellows Falls Times-a dyed
in-the-wool republican paper-has this
to say: "There is evidently strong
boom for Lincoln as a candidate for
president next year. Especially does
this prevail among the people. Lin
coin and Robinson would make splen-
did ticket" 1t looks as though all the
republican newspapers of the state, ex-
cept the Watchman, were determined
not to let their prejudices run away
with their judgment.

Certain persons along the Canadian
frontier desire to place separators in
Canada and import cream into the
states so as to avoid the expenses OF
transporting milk. To this end Col
lector Smalley recently asked instruc-
tiOns of the treasury department as to
the proper rate of duty on the cream.
Assistant Secretary Maynard has re-
piled that milk is subject to duty as a
raw and manufactured article, but
as there is no specific provision in the
tariff for cream, and as the separation
of the cream from the milk does not
constitute manufacture, the depart
ment is of the opinion that cream is
properly dutiable at the rate of ten per
cent ad valorem as a raw and unman-
ufactured article.
